Adoption targets - Another tick in the box?

It looks like social workers in London are still at it, having failed dismally to protect baby Peter from abuse they have now gone over the top and taken a pair of twins away from their parents before they even left hospital.

Reading the article, it sounds like this couple didn't have much of a clue about looking after little babies but then how many other new parents find themselves in the same position, with this tiny bundle totally dependant on them but not quite sure how best to go about it? Parents like these need support and advice, the kind of thing that luckier parents would have had from their parents and grandparents.

Instead, social workers have waded in, removed the children, and placed them with foster parents, and following one of the infamous secret family court hearings may now be put up for adoption.

One of the accusations made against the mother - she seems to have an "anger problem"! BLOODY RIGHT she does! If somebody tried to take my children away I'm sure I'd have a major "anger problem".

I suppose these babies will bring the council a couple of steps closer to meeting their adoption targets and they'll get a nice fat bonus from the government, pity about the family but think about the managers performance related pay - that's all that matters, doesn't it?

About time we had a big change in the way this country is run!!!!

What we need to happen, is for these children, and others like them, to sue the authorities for the damage done to them and the loss of their natural families. Afraid that is the only language the people in power understand - hit them in the pocket using the courts they so love.
